Substance abuse is a popular pastime in Hollywood, it is also the reason for many failed marriages.
While we could never list all of them, here are few well known Hollywood couples who have
parted ways because of dependency issues
10.
Robin Thicke & Paula Patton
Singer/songwriter Robin Thicke and his wife Paula Patton are going through a messy custody
battle and an even messier divorce.
Many already know that Thicke was caught getting way too close to female fans in the last few
years; but In addition to Thicke's unfaithful behaviour, he admitted that his relationship
fell apart because he had an issue with drug abuse.
When he told Patton about his addiction, she wasn’t interested in sticking around and
helping him through it.
Thicke also admits that he was high on Vicodin and alcohol while he filmed the video for
his wildly popular song “Blurred Lines”.
Sounds like art imitating life here.
9.
Rosie O’Donnell & Michelle Rounds
O’Donnell’s now ex-wife Michelle Rounds wanted a divorce after she found out that
the ex talk show host had a penchant for questionable behavior.
Rounds wanted full custody of their daughter, Dakota, claiming that O’Donnell did nothing
but drink, smoke weed and indulge in edibles all day.
According to her, the comedian apparently drinks a bottle of wine nearly every night
which Rounds feels is now getting in the way of O'Donnell's parenting.
So, what is O’Donnell’s come back to all of this?
was that Rounds is just upset over the prenup she signed.
8.
Chris Brown & Karrueche Tran
This looks like deja vu for Chris Brown.
His now ex-girlfriend, Karrueche Tran, is accusing him of being malicious and physically
and verbally abusive.
While Rihanna already warned us about Brown, Tran must have wanted to find out for herself.
She and the singer broke up a few years ago due to his erratic behavior, drug use and
his inability to control his mental state.
Brown has been accused by a few women of being violent and having a substance abuse problem.
Not only has it ruined his relationships it seems to have slowed his career down a bit
as well.
Tran is now looking to get a restraining order against Brown who she is accusing of harassment.
7 Miley Cyrus & Liam Hemsworth
We have all seen what a hot mess Miley Cyrus has been in the last few years.
Her music changed, she went out of her way to be more sexual and was more outspoken.
She even ended her relationship with longtime fiancé, Liam Hemsworth.
Some say she had to find herself, others say she was more interested in partying, smoking
pot and Salvia, which she did publicly back in Sept 2016.
Although, Cyrus is now on the straight and narrow, at the time her partying lifestyle
was too much for straight-laced Hemsworth.
She has recently admitted that she no longer smokes pot and she is back with her man.
At least her story has a happy ending.
6 Johnny Depp & Amber Heard
They met while filming The Rum Diary in 2011 and quickly hit it off, but sources say the
relationship was toxic from day one.
In May 2016, Heard walked into a courthouse with a black eye, ready to file a restraining
order against her husband.
Since then, Heard has accused Depp of both verbal and physical abuse.
She also blamed a chunk of his erratic behavior on his love for drugs and alcohol.
She named cocaine as his drug of choice.
She has stated several times that she is scared of Depp and his anger.
Rightfully so.
You never know how one will react when they are under the influence of substances.
5.
Charlie Sheen & Brooke Mueller
When Charlie Sheen and Brooke Mueller hooked up, they were both on a silent downward spiral.
In the past, she had her own drug and alcohol issues as did Sheen, but they both managed
to keep it together for a while.
Reports began to surface that Mueller had relapsed, making Sheen seem like the clean,
sane one for once.
She quickly retreated to rehab admitting that her sobriety had been compromised.
However, it would be years before she became sober again and Sheen just wasn’t interested
in that wild ride.
He scooped up the twin boys he had with Mueller, dropped them off with Denise Richards and
filed for divorce from Mueller.
Speaking of Richards, she filed for divorce from Sheen back in 2006 alleging that he was
unstable, violent, addicted to gambling and prostitutes, and visited inappropriate pornographic
web sites.
4.
Whitney Houston & Bobby Brown
When these two got together they shocked the world.
It came as a surprise to see Whitney with this bad boy, because she was America’s
sweetheart at that time.
Their relationship was quite volatile; Brown had been known to be violent at times and
to be heavy into drugs going back to his New Edition days.
Houston was also into drugs, but everyone assumed that it was Brown’s fault.
They split a few years after their daughter was born because, let’s face it, two drug
addicts don’t make a right.
They could no longer function together, which was documented in the reality show they were
on called Being Bobby Brown.
3 Khloe Kardashian & Lamar Odom
Khloe Kardashian was the last Kardashian sister anyone would expect to jump on the divorce
bandwagon.
She and Lamar seemed genuinely in love, but as they say: it isn’t just about love.
Khloe lived with Odom even after he had relapsed, and like a doting wife she tried to protect
him by not telling anyone as she was secretly trying to help him.
Carrying this secret eventually broke Khloe and their marriage.
Odom was so far gone with his drug binging that when it became public knowledge he was
already acting like a crazy person.
Kardashian couldn’t take it anymore so she helped him get into a drug rehab program and
filed for divorce.
Can you blame her?
2.
Ben Affleck & Jennifer Garner
The normally private couple let it all air out when they announced that they would be
separating.
What brought on this sudden break-up?
Apparently, it had something to do with Affleck’s infidelity, and even more to do with his drinking
and gambling.
Affleck has admitted to having drinking and gambling issues in the past, to the extent
that he had to do a stint in rehab.
There are probably other issues that plagued the couple over the years but let’s be honest,
living with an alcoholic who started drinking again is big enough.
Garner initiated the divorce and although they have back peddled once, so far it looks
like this time it is inevitable.
1.
Angelina Jolie & Brad Pitt
The recent break up of Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt came as a shock to everyone.
The couple seemed perfect and honestly, they were everyone’s #GOALS.
One would expect a smooth divorce from two mature, professional celebrities...
wrong!
Soon after the news broke of their divorce, rumors surfaced that Pitt had a problem with
drugs and alcohol.
Supposedly this was one of the reasons for Jolie quickly packing her bags and leaving,
taking the children with her.
It was reported that he had gotten physical with his son Maddox.
This was not the first time Pitt had made headlines regarding his love for alcohol and
pot and how it was affecting his marriage.
He has admitted that he does love to indulge occasionally, but for Jolie, it seems like
it was more like overindulging.
